Just thought I'd share a few pictures of my flock I took the other day.
Watch out though: Fluffeh alert!!!
Here is Amber. She is a black x Red turken.
This is Sebastian. He is a little pure black ameraucana chick.
Another Black ameraucana. Name suggestions?
Here is Pipus Jackson. Pure...
We recently hatched 4 bantam rocks. (1 white,3 columbian) They're about 2 weeks old. Although they have most of their feathers,
I can't tell if they're hens or roos. None of them have big,red combs but they have small tails. I really hope for at least one boy
or 2 pairs. Anyone have any...
It's been over 2 years since we let a broody raise a few chicks.Since Tick hatched us two broods,we thought she worked really hard,so she gets some little mother's day ameraucanas! Ms. Broody has her own little pen and they're just so cute!
Somehow..we managed to hatch my favorite breed,turkens...
My friends sebright,Robin has a dirty vent area that really stinks. It seems to be poo on it. She's acting normal,and not showing any sign of being hurt by it. What's the matter with her? Should she medicate it or just take it off? If so,how long does the medication have to be on her? Do you...
I just got a new showgirl (Silkie crossed with a turken) about a week ago! Her name's Diva and she is just the cutest little thing EVER!!! I painted all of her toenails pink and she's spoiled-- but that wasn't enough! Diva just had to have a new little boa! Didn't her mom know that it's the...
Chicks grow up so fast.. It seems like yesterday I was watching them hatch.. They're about 1 and a half weeks now,and I can REALLY tell now we have a frizzle. She's so funny! xD Out little showboy (silkie x turken) is going to be a blue! And I figured out we have a splash,Black,and even a...
My little serama hen,Bead (don't ask) has been sitting on the nest box for about a day now. I'm sure she's not being broody. It looks like she's egg bound. We felt her and she still has an egg in her,and I'm afraid it may be cracked. Bead has a little raspy breathing so we gave her some...
We just had a bunch of chicks hatch! Most of them were early. But,I think it's because they're part serama. (Seramas take 18 days to hatch.) I also discovered if you let the eggs sit out,they'll hatch faster. Kinda weird. Well,anyways,here's the pics!!
No name,the splash ameraucana...
I decided to take my 2 sumatras,Percy and Thalia to the South Eastern Youth Fair to show them. I was so suprised when Percy won 4th place!
Here's some pics:

The judge looks at Thalia-

Yesterday,I was feeding my chicken,Rosy some scratch out of my hand when I noticed something in the nestbox. It was small,but definitely shaped like a heart! I finally figured out it was a piece of a pine tree,that SOMEHOW got in the nestbox.. I also found a tiny,I mean TINY egg. It was like...
I went to my 4-H/Fundraiser (At the pampered pullets in Ocala,Fl.) and I got these 2 ADORABLE silkie mixes. One's a buff,with a tiny top notch,but the other kinda looks like a silkie- Faverolle mix.. But whatever they are,I love them. Lol,can't stop getting mixes! The Silkie Faverolle mix...
Post pictures of your baby turkens!! I need to see those cute fuzzballs! Mixes or not-even showgirls! I'll start-
Here's the 3 originals:
Brodda-
Pip-
Scar-
Pip's daughters:
Twister-
Ball-
Pop the Delurken,a hybrid I made by crossing Pip with a Deleware name Salt (RIP)-
I have a turken named Ball. (Hey,she looked like a beach ball when she was a chick)
Can you see?
Well,when Ball was still a chick,she jumped straight out of the brooder,ON MY HEAD when I was talking on the phone with my teacher. I had to tell her I had a chick on my head and she probably...
I can't think of names for these critters,any suggestions?
(The 4 hens are the only ones who aren't named.)
Thanks I was thinking of Bluebeard,but ehh..my mom says that's not a girl name.
Edit-
I figured out some names for them,
Bluestar,
Saphira,
Iris,
And..
Lily
Thanks everyone!
A while back I traded 3 turken roos for these two little fellas. Anyone have an idea of what they are? I'm curious. I mean,I know they're a mutt but what are they mixed with?
They both have 5 toes,like a silkie, feathers on their feet and a top notch,but their skin is yellowish.
When I'm bored. I like to edit my chicken pics. I edit it using picnik or befunky. It's funny,so I thought I'd share.
(well not all of them are funny,but they're cool.)
no I didn't die them

My showbirds got a new pen about a month ago,Both ameracaunas and my phoenixes. I is happy now.
Here's some pics I got of them
Phoenixes and the misfits. (yes,I hatch random chicks with my show birds,I can't help it! )
Moon,or is it her twin,Finn? o.O I dunno..
LSP (EE) Left. And...
We have a cochin-silkie cockerel who we have to get rid of. He's a barred rock color and has a little top notch and he also has 5 toes. He is a very sweet boy,but we don't have enough room to keep him. He doesn't crow yet,but should soon,like his brother! Like I said,very sweet and easy to...
My rooster's,(Pip's) favorite girl is Scar..well let's just say he's a busy boy.. Well,One day we saw that most of Scar's feathers were gone off her back,and she was bleeding. We put some antibiotics on it and then asked my grandma to make a hen sweater. After 4 failed attempts,we got one that...
